the top hoist clamp. Do this by pressing a wedge
into the slot between the hole for the soundome
tube and the hole for the lead screw. DO NOT
remove the top hoist clamp from the lead screw.
Tighten the top hoist clamp.
Place the safety clamp immediately below the hoist

Lower the soundome into the seachest.

To determine how high or low to position the soundome
within the seachest, go below the boat and measure
the distance between the bottom of the soundome and
the end of the seachest.
The correct position of the soundome boot is 3.8
cm (1.5 inches) within the seachest. See Page

If the soundome is too high or too low loosen the top
hoist clamp and safety clamp.
Raise or lower the soundome according to your mea-

2. Remove both top hoist clamp and lead
screw from the motor shaft.
3. When you replace the top hoist clamp
and lead screw, be sure they are in the
same position as before.
4. Tighten the locking bolts on the top hoist
clamp until they dig into the plastic.
When the hoist is in the "Up" position,
the lead screw should be even with the
top of the hoist clamp.
